Hi,

A friend and I have entered the world of 12x20 format, and in discussion with an other photographer, a comment was made. He encouraged me to find "optical glass" for the contact print - this glass he claimed was absolutely flat and had a bet ter transparency then regular glass. He had suggested talking to an office suppl y compnay and asking for glass taked out of broken copiers.

I had been intending to get a sheets of 1/2" plate glass, and use that in conjun ction with a sheet of high-density foam for contact prints, but if "optical glas s" would be better, I'd pursue that.

Any thoughts, comments of suggestions?
